Alex Jones, A Catalyst For A New Breed of Activist Media

Alex Jones is the self-described tip of the spear in the information war against the New World Order agenda. If you happened to be in Austin in the late 90’s and flipped through the channels, you would hear his voice of truth, piercing the airwaves like a beacon of light in the mental fog of pop culture entertainment, endless spectator sports and mainstream media disinformation. Looking back it was a magical time, in which many in Austin and abroad, were awakening during infancy of the technological truth movement. This was before YouTube, viral videos and social networking sites. It was a time that information was passed by word of mouth or by archaic devices called VHS tapes.

My journey to the conspiracy capitol of the world proclaimed by the BBC, began in ‘95 after a degree at a technical college that gave me an opportunity to join the tech boom in Austin. Being in my early 20’s, I knew of government corruption at some level thanks to my father who was retired from the Air Force. He spoke about the New World Order, Bush crime family and eugenics, but like others, I was living a typical life fairly asleep to the grand deception we have all been born into.

My first experience hearing Alex came one night flipping through the access channels, I immediately stopped on this seemingly crazed and outraged guy on TV. We have all been subjected to predictive programming through TV shows and movies, so I immediately labeled him a anti-government militia type that was probably racist. This was a horrible assumption, but this is what predictive programming does to the mind, it plants preconceived notions of people, places and things in your subconscious without you realizing your responses to such stimuli is scientifically programmed. I would listen to him for a few minutes, almost like I’m watching something taboo, and then change the channel. It was obvious that his shocking information was hitting areas of my brain making me think about what he was saying, but then the suppressed programmed propaganda would kick in, and tell me that this guy is crazy and everything couldn’t be that bad. Writing this now and reflecting, I now understand these feelings and can recognize how people who first listen to Alex can’t handle the information shattering their current paradigm, and tend to shut him off.

I began to listen to him more and more, burning off the pre-programmed brain receptors that were holding me back from having an open mind and using discernment. I also started finding others on access TV presenting similar information, so it wasn’t as foreign as it once was. So finally I watched one of his shows, he was exposing local corruption, and the growing move towards globalization modeled by the UN. I also noticed another strange thing, other access producers would do whole shows slandering him, which I found odd. Even in Alex’s early days, he was constantly attacked by peers and others who initially claimed to be his friends and colleagues.

Fast forward to the summer of 2001, I happened to catch the now historical broadcast of Alex accurately predicting the September 11th false flag events in New York and D.C., even more astounding was the fact he picked Osama Bin Laden as the central figure government would use as the mastermind of the attacks. Watching this broadcast was surreal, I had a feeling that he had stumbled on to something big and it freaked him out because his tone was alarming and somber at the same time, if that makes since. He was pleading for people to call the Whitehouse and tell them cease this false flag attack. I couldn’t turn the channel from this compelling broadcast, it seemed as if I was watching a Twilight Zone episode, in which a conspiracy theorists takes over the airwaves to speak the truth. Still mentally asleep, I watched this with no sense of urgency to do anything. It was like underground anti-government entertainment to me at the time, so I soon forgot and went on with life.

Coming home after my night shift on the morning of September 11th, I turned on the TV and within 5 minutes saw the infamous video of the second plane hit the Twin Towers live like the rest of the world. The response to this shocking and emotional event again was provided by the years of programming by the media. My first reaction in the days following 9/11 was pure anger, initially supporting an overwhelming military response directed towards the Middle East. The programming began to break with help from my father, who was a retired Air Force Veteran. He began to tell me that he believed the government was behind the attacks and Al-Qaeda was front terrorist group created by U.S. intelligence. I still wasn’t ready for that truth bomb, even though my eyes told me that the buildings fell in a controlled fashion similar to buildings being taken down in Vegas.

Around town and at work, people were united against this new boogey man Bin Laden, and for a few weeks it’s sad to say I was with them. Soon after, I saw the rebroadcast of Alex’s warning of the attack and it gave me chills. I remembered that I heard this scenario before, and it happened like Alex predicted. This started my journey, the realization that now my life has been changed forever, and now I have to do research to find out where he gathered this information from and why our own government would do this to their own people. Now I was awake, deciding to jump into the deep end of the info war. I began reading infowars.com regularly and checking out all the material and videos he had posted. Soon after 9/11 Alex put together an emergency broadcast that would later be expanded into his first documentary on the subject 9/11 the Road to Tyranny. The information was astounding, and at that time he was 9/11 truth. Soon after, more researchers like George Humphrey, Mike Ruppert and Eric Hufschmid provided more pieces of the complex puzzle.

By the time Thanksgiving came in 2001, I was stone cold awake like diving into a lake at 5 am. I came to town with a bag full of tapes and documents, telling everyone I saw that 9/11 wasn’t what we were lead to believe. At this point, I still had a large skeptical view on the subject and couldn’t believe what I was learning about the covert shadow government that used the 9/11 false flag to gain power overtly by implementing new draconian legislative bills. Although all signs were pointing to an inside job I couldn’t believe it and had to keep learning more.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

Then one day in 2002, Alex posted the Operation Northwoods document on infowars and my jaw dropped. I had seen the information about drills, physics and hijackers that were government agents, but this declassified document literally made me nauseous. I googled it, found the pdf, and read it with disbelief. This was the turning point in my awakening and I haven’t looked back sense. This revelation compelled me to research and rethink everything I have learned since a child, historically, religiously and politically. So I took the whole summer of 2002 reading a watching anything I could get my hands on. I even read the dictionary from front to back and took notes extensively. It was information overload, like having a massive brainfreeze downing a Slurpee with a huge straw.

After my re-education, I appreciated all the researchers out there who took it upon themselves to spread their knowledge, in order to wake up society. I made a personal vow to do my best, researching and uncovering new facts, and use my perspective to also help enlighten the public. During this time I was a regular at the Austin access studio, and this is where I met Alex, shook his hand and hung out in the control booth while he broadcasted live. It was an amazing experience watching him work behind the scenes. He is the nicest guy in the world off the air, but just like a football player, when he is in his element he is amped and focus on destroying the enemy before him.

Over the years Alex continually grew on the net and on his syndicated radio show, bringing the emerging truth movement with him. His growing audience provided an outlet for other activists, researchers and websites. It was during these years that Google Video and YouTube took off, enabling Loose Change and We Are Change, to energize independent activism with the viral nature of politically oriented videos that Alex pioneered years earlier. This demonstrated how we could reach people outside the movement and bring them in with the seeds of truth. The emergence of social networking sites also provided an opportunity to spread information to a new audience virally. Alex’s documentaries, access show and radio clips where now circling the globe causing another exponential growth in the truth movement.

In early 2007, Congressman Ron Paul announced his run for president, given freedom lovers from several ideologies a unified political voice. His ideas brought together libertarians, true conservatives, 9/11 truthers, antiwar activists, people exposing the fiat non-federal monetary system created by the Fed and others exposing the New World Order. Alex helped catapult Ron Paul’s campaign to a new audience, and even Dr. Paul acknowledged that well over half of his supporters came from Alex’s audience of listeners.

Having been previously exposed to Ron Paul’s astute and brilliant analysis of the fiat monetary system and the fraudulent Federal Reserve, I decided that it was time for me to get active and help get Congressman Paul elected. One day in November my wife came up with an idea of billboards to promote Ron Paul and we decided to give it a try. I started a website, ronpaulbillboards and the rest is history. The idea was to raise money through a paypal chipin and then launch billboards in Iowa, the first primary caucus in the ‘08 election year. The donation meter was up for a couple of days and the initial donations were exciting, and I thought hey this might actually work. Towards the end of the week, the donations picked up real quick. I searched for the reason for the spike of donations and traffic and found out it was Steve Watson from Alex’s Infowars team, who had posted the link to the site on infowars. This was a truly amazing moment in my life, within days of launching this dream we had on the couch, we were already half way to our goal of $3,000 for a digital billboard in Cedar Rapids. It was the Alex’s platform that enabled us to reach our goal within a week. He later posted our press releases for the billboard launch and had me on the radio show a few times to promote the site which lead to the successfully reaching our goal in this seemingly impossible endeavor. Who would give money over the internet to strangers for a political billboard in this day and age. Accomplishing this boosted my confidence that I could achieve anything that I set my mind to and that if I have honest and good intentions, people will rally behind you in support.

This venture eventually led to us raising enough money to launch 5 billboards in 4 of the early primary states, including the first ever political billboard for a presidential election in downtown Austin off of the busy strip of I-35.

Riding the wave of the Ron Paul Revolution to the end, I sought after another way in which we can reach the public and begin the educational process on the issues, if we are ever to elect someone like Congressman Paul. During the Texas billboard campaign, I was contacted by a local graphic artist who provided some design ideas for the Austin billboard. We hit it off and began working on some new ideas for after Dr. Paul’s presidential run. I first had a vision of a website that would promote activist events like the DC Revolution March sponsored by groups who supported Ron Paul. After many design and content changes, it soon turned into a categorized resource for news, perspectives and analysis by me and a couple of writers such as Les Visible.

Anyone who has launched a website before remembers those first few months when you are trying to get something to get picked up by a larger site that would essential give your site the first traffic boost. Soon after launching, one of our articles was picked up by another alternative news site that is promoted by Alex, whatreallyhappened.com. Shortly after that we had several articles[1] picked up by writers from Infowars, solidifying our entry to the top of alternative news outlets.

This is why supporting Alex Jones in his upcoming money bomb is so important, my personal experience is proof that he is using his success to also boost other websites who are also working towards waking people up to the cold hard truth right before their eyes. The disinfo out on the web that he is a Jesuit gatekeeper, CIA agent, and space alien from planet X, is laughable but sad. Some people are being mislead by these ridiculous claims and are losing focus on the issues we face and the global elite who are moving to enslave humanity. We need to join together for the common cause of liberty, and focus our energy on those who are seeking to enslave us in a tyrannical global super state. Supporting Alex in this Money Bomb will further expand the truth movement in general, and allow for more burgeoning activists and websites to reach a wider audience.

In the following short feature, Alex tours through the studio and offices to show firsthand what he was able to do with the funds from the first ever moneybomb last year:

The Infowars Money Bomb is your chance to play a crucial role in loading the cannons for an all-out assault on the corporate media monopoly in America. With your help, Alex and the team will reawaken millions more to liberty and resistance against the control of the new world order.

Readying Americans for Dangerous, Mandatory Vaccinations

Stephen Lendman
Global Research
June 10, 2009

At least three US federal laws should concern all Americans and suggest what may be coming – mandatory vaccinations for hyped, non-existant threats, like H1N1 (Swine Flu). Vaccines and drugs like Tamiflu endanger human health but are hugely profitable to drug company manufacturers.

In the wake of the hyped Swine Flu scare, media reports suggest mass vaccinations are coming.

The Project BioShield Act of 2004 (S. 15) became law on July 21, 2004 “to provide protections and countermeasures against chemical, radiological, or nuclear agents that may be used in a terrorist attack against the United States by giving the National Institutes of Health contracting flexibility, infrastructure improvements, and expediting the scientific peer review process, and streamlining the Food and Drug Administration approval process of countermeasures.”

In other words, the FDA may now recklessly approve inadequately tested, potentially dangerous vaccines and other drugs if ever the Secretaries of Health and Human Services (HHS) or Defense (DOD) declare a national emergency, whether or not one exists and regardless of whether treatments available are safe and effective. Around $6 billion or more will be spent to develop, produce, and stockpile vaccines and other drugs to counteract claimed bioterror agents.

The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act slipped under the radar when George Bush signed it into law as part of the 2006 Defense Appropriations Act (HR 2863). It lets the HHS Secretary declare any disease an epidemic or national emergency requiring mandatory vaccinations. Nothing in the Act lists criteria that warrant a threat. Also potential penalties aren’t specified for those who balk, but very likely they’d include quarantine and possible fines.

The HHS web site also says the Secretary may “issue a declaration….that provides immunity from tort liability (except for willful misconduct) for claims of loss caused, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from administration or use of (vaccine or other pharmaceutical) countermeasures to diseases, threats and conditions determined by the Secretary to constitute a present, or credible risk of a future public health emergency….”

The industry-run US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notoriously rushes inadequately tested drugs to market, putting their efficacy and safety into question, and turning those who use them into lab rats. It includes everyone if a mass vaccination is ordered on the mere claim of a public emergency – no proof required.

The Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act (S. 3678) is the other worrisome law, effective December 19, 2006. It amended “the Public Health Service Act with respect to public health security and all-hazards preparedness and response, and for other purposes.” Even its supporters worry about issues of privacy, liability, and putting profits over public health. Critics express greater concerns about dangerous remedies for exaggerated or non-existant threats as well as mass hysteria created for political purposes.

At least one other measure is also worrisome – The Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA). So far it’s just a proposal by the Center for Law and the Public’s Health – “A Collaborative at Johns Hopkins and Georgetown Universities (as) a primary, international, national, state, and local resource on public health law (and) policy for public health practitioners, judges, academics, policymakers, and others.”

MSEHPA is now “track(ing) legal responses to the emerging international response to the 2009 H1N1 (swine flu) outbreak, including declarations of public health emergency at the international, national, state, and local levels….” even though forensic evidence can’t confirm any H1N1 deaths. No emergency exists anywhere, and reporting one is all hype to sell dangerous drugs to unsuspecting people globally.

On its web site, the ACLU says this about MSEHPA:

It’s “written in a way that doesn’t adequately protect citizens against the misuse of the tremendous powers that it would grant in an emergency. (It’s) replete with civil liberties problems. Its three top flaws are that:

(1) It fails to include basic checks and balances (by) grant(ing) extraordinary emergency powers (that) should never go unchecked. (It) could have serious consequences for individuals’ freedom, privacy, and equality.”

(2) “It goes well beyond bioterrorism (with) an overbroad definition of ‘public health emergency” that may be anything a local or national authority declares for any reason with no conclusive evidence for proof.

(3) “It lacks privacy protections (and) undercut(s) existing protections for sensitive medical information.”

MSEHPA worries other organizations besides the ACLU, both conservative and progressive – including the Free Congress Foundation, American Legislative Exchange Council, conservative association of state legislators, Human Rights Campaign, and Health Privacy Project.

The Real Threat of Dangerous, Mandatory Vaccinations

In the wake of the hyped Swine Flu scare, media reports suggest mass vaccinations are coming. The May 6 Kimberly Kindy – Ceci Connolly Washington Post one, for example, headlined “US May Add Shots for Swine Flu to Fall Regimen” without saying they’ll be mandatory but reading between the lines suggests the possibility this year or later.

The writers report that “The Obama administration is considering an unprecedented fall vaccination campaign” to include regular and Swine Flu shots, the latter because it’s “spreading across the globe.”

HHS’ Dr. Robin Robinson said “We are moving forward with making a vaccine,” and if the government proceeds with a national program, enough supply will be produced to provide two doses for all Americans with spokespersons like National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Anthony Fauci, claiming adverse reactions aren’t to be expected and adding another shot for Swine Flu “should not present a problem.”

The New York Times also hypes the scare with reports of city schools closed after unconfirmed Swine Flu cases, a few adult deaths blamed on H1N1 bringing the claimed total in the city to seven, and the World Health Organization (WHO) saying on June 3 that it’s moving closer to declaring a worldwide (Level 6) Swine Flu pandemic – even though none exists.

With all the hype, misinformation, and willful lies WHO’s Dr. Keiji Fukuda, in charge of flu, said only 117 deaths globally have been “blamed” on Swine Flu and any warning may include the caveat that the virus isn’t very lethal. A more accurate statement would explain that no forensic evidence links any deaths to H1N1, and influenza annually kills about 30,000 people in America alone – something the major media never report or that scattered accounts of any type flu deaths worldwide are no cause for alarm or reason for scary headlines.

It’s also unconscionable for the WHO, US and other nations’ officials to spread lies, deception, and hysteria so major pharmaceutical companies can foist dangerous vaccines and other drugs on unsuspecting people, harming their health and making them vulnerable to later diseases and possible early deaths.

Massachusetts May Be A Forerunner of What’s to Come

On April 28, the Massachusetts Senate unanimously passed a pandemic flu preparation bill that rises to the level of martial law. If approved by the House and signed into law, it will mandate among other measures:

– “vaccination, treatment, examination, or testing of” all individuals involved in providing health care – as perhaps step one before ordering the same process for all state residents;

– owners or occupiers of all premises “to permit entry into and investigation of the premises;”

– closure, evacuation, and decontamination of all suspected facilities; and

– restricting or prohibiting “assemblages of persons.”

Other states may be planning similar measures as precursors to mandatory nationwide vaccinations and overall suspension of civil liberty protections.

Adverse Vaccination Effects on Gulf War Troops

Before deploying to the Persian Gulf in 1990 – 91 (and thereafter to the present), all US troops got a standard series of inoculations against infectious diseases – the same ones given to all US citizens traveling to the region. After arriving, 150,000 also got anthrax vaccinations and 8000 botulinum toxoid ones even though concerns were raised about adverse long-term health consequences.

A National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine (IOM) study was conducted to assess them with results released in September 2000. In December 1997, the Department of Defense (DOD) announced that all US military forces would receive anthrax vaccinations. The Anthrax Vaccine Immunization Program (AVIP) began in March 1998 even though IOM found little published peer-reviewed scientific information on its safety.

In its study, IOM reported evidence of an association between vaccinations studied and transient acute common health effects, including redness, swelling, and fever commonly associated with other vaccinations. However, conclusive proof of long-term problems wasn’t determined – likely because study findings were skewed not to find them. More on that below.

IOM also studied botulinum toxoid vaccines and found evidence of an association between the vaccine and transient acute local and systemic effects similar to anthrax vaccinations. Again, conclusive proof of long-term adverse health effects wasn’t found – another very dubious conclusion as evidence below explains.

Military personnel usually get multiple vaccinations. IOM studied their effects but didn’t prove or disprove any long-term adverse effects. However several independent studies of British Gulf War veterans found some link between multiple vaccinations and later health problems.

Gary Matsumoto is a New York-based award-winning investigative journalist. His 2004 book, “Vaccine A: The Covert Government Experiment That’s Killing Our Soldiers and Why GIs are Only the First Victims” took sharp issue with IOM results and the Pentagon’s denial of Gulf War syndrome.

Investigating the shadowy vaccination development world, he discovered US military-employed doctors and scientists conducted secret medical experiments on US citizens in violation of the Nuremberg Code and fundamental medical ethics.

For its part, Nuremberg established legal medical experimental standards now incorporated into ethical medical codes, including:

– requiring voluntary consent of human subjects without coercion, fraud, deceit, and with full disclosure of known risks;

– experiments should avoid “all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury;”

– experiments should never be conducted if there’s “an a priori reason to believe death or disabling injury will occur;”

– risk “should never exceed that determined by the humanitarian importance of the problem to be solved..;” and

– experiments should be terminated if there’s reason to believe they’ll cause “injury, disability, or death to the experimental subject.”

According to Matsumoto, the Pentagon violated these and other standards, betrayed the troops, and the fundamental duty of military and civilian leaders to protect them. Since at least 1987, biowarfare development trumped the welfare of tens of thousands of GIs used as human guinea pigs for inoculation with experimental unlicensed anthrax vaccines containing squalene – an oil-based adjuvant (to enhance immunity) known for decades to cause severe autoimmune diseases in lab animals, yet administered involuntarily without disclosure of its harmful effects to human health. Matsumoto wrote:

“The unethical experiments detailed in this book are ongoing, with little prospect of being self-limiting because they have been shielded from scrutiny and public accountability by national security concerns.” He suggested the “writing (was) on the wall” of what’s to come with prospects now it may be soon.

“When UCLA Medical School’s Michael Whitehouse and Frances Beck injected squalene combined with other materials into rats and guinea pigs back in the 1970s, few oils were more effective at causing the animal versions of arthritis and multiple sclerosis.” In 1999, immunologist Dr. Johnny Lorentzen at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute found that on injection, an “otherwise benign molecule like squalene can stimulate a self-destructive immune response,” even though it occurs naturally in the body.

Other research shows that squalene is the experimental anthrax vaccine ingredient that caused devastating autoimmune diseases and deaths for many Gulf War veterans from the US, UK, and Australia, yet it continues in use today and for new vaccines development in labs. There’s a “close match between the squalene-induced diseases in animals and those observed in humans injected with this oil: rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus.”

Other autoimmune diseases are also linked to humans injected with squalene. “There are now data in more than two dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers, from ten different laboratories in the US, Europe, Asia and Australia, documenting that squalene-based adjuvants can induce autoimmune diseases in animals…observed in mice, rats, guinea pigs and rabbits. Sweden’s Karolinska Institute has demonstrated that squalene alone can induce the animal version of rheumatoid arthritis. The Polish Academy of Sciences has shown that in animals, squalene alone can produce catastrophic injury to the nervous system and the brain. The University of Florida Medical School has shown that in animals, squalene alone can induce production of antibodies specifically associated with systemic lupus erythematosus.”

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

Micropaleontologist Dr. Viera Scheibner conducted research into the adverse effects of adjuvants in vaccines and wrote:

Squalene “contributed to the cascade of reactions called “Gulf War syndrome. (GIs developed) arthritis, fibromyalgia, lymphadenopathy, rashes, photosensitive rashes, malar rashes, chronic fatigue, chronic headaches, abnormal body hair loss, non-healing skin lesions, aphthous ulcers, dizziness, weakness, memory loss, seizures, mood changes, neuropsychiatric problems, anti-thyroid effects, anaemia, elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, ALS, Raynaud’s phenomenon, Sjorgren’s syndrome, chronic diarrhea, night sweats and low-grade fever.”

Matsumoto’s book includes numerous case studies of GIs afflicted with one or more of the above syndromes, their devastating effects, and the outlandish US government reaction – failing to acknowledge their existence or a connection between them and administered vaccines. Also denying the effects of other toxic Gulf theater exposures (like depleted uranium) as well as withholding meaningful treatments or protocols.

US Army Captain George L. Skypeck spoke eloquently for many when he said:

“Was the character of my valor less intense than those at Lexington? Was the pain of my wounds any less severe than those at Normandy? And was my loneliness any less sorrowful than those at Inchon? Then why am I forgotten amonst those remembered as ‘heros?’ ”

If mass vaccinations are ordered, millions of Americans may ask: Why do you keep using unsafe vaccines and other drugs when clear evidence shows their dangers? Why do you jeopardize all Americans by unleashing a future plague of serious illnesses, diseases, and disabilities? Why have you willfully and maliciously ruined my health?

Immunologist Dr. Pamela Asa first recognized autoimmune diseases showing up in GIs that mirrored those in lab animals injected with oil formulated squalene adjuvants. By 1997, hundreds of millions of dollars had been spent testing vaccines containing them, in animal studies since 1988 and human clinical trials since 1991 – by leading research institutes like NIH, the National Cancer Institute, and the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

According to Matsumoto, today, “Squalene adjuvants are a key ingredient in a whole new generation of vaccines intended for mass immunization around the globe” even though researchers at Tulane Medical School and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research proved “that the immune system responds specifically to the squalene molecule.”

The immune system “see(s) and recognizes it as an oil molecule native to the body. Squalene is not just a molecule found in a knee or elbow – it is found throughout the nervous system and the brain.” When injected in the body, the immune system attacks it as an enemy to be eliminated. Eating and digesting squalene isn’t a problem. But injecting it “galvanize(s) the immune system into attacking it, which can produce self-destructive cross reactions against the same molecule in the places where it occurs naturally in the body – and where it is critical to the health of the nervous system.”

Once self-destruction begins, it doesn’t stop as the body keeps making the molecule that the immune system is trained to attack and destroy.

Immunologist Dr. Bonnie Dunbar also did extensive research on hepatitis B-inflicted illnesses and found similar autoimmune processes involved in molecular mimicry in people with devastating neuroimmune syndromes after getting vaccine injections.

Matsumoto says “Squalene is a kind of trigger for (a) real biological weapon,” what Soviet researchers called “a biological time bomb!!” and Matsumoto says is “the immune system.” When its “full repertoire of cells and antibodies (attack) tissues they are supposed to protect, the results can be catastrophic.” He and Dr. Pam Asa conclude that “Oil adjuvants are the most insidious chemical weapon ever devised,” including ones with squalene – something the Soviets knew could be used as a weapon in the 1980s.

Matsumoto says that “the real problem with using squalene (isn’t) that it mimics a molecule found in the body; it is the same molecule. So what American scientists conceived as a vaccine booster (or what’s now being developed in labs) was another ‘nano-bomb,’ instigating chronic, unpredictable and debilitating disease. When the NIH….argued that squalene would be safe because it is native to the body, just the opposite was true,” and, of course, still is. “Squalene’s natural presence in the body made it one of the most dangerous molecules ever injected into man” and using it in vaccines is outlandish and criminal.

So why does Washington sanction its use? According to Matsumoto: “scientists in the United States are now literally invested in squalene. Army scientists who developed the second generation anthrax vaccine have reputations to protect and licensing fees to reap (as well as) worldwide rights to develop and commercialize the new recombinant vaccine for anthrax” and ones for other health threats.

Disturbingly, “Many of the cutting-edge vaccines currently in development by the NIH and its corporate partners contain squalene in one formulation or another. There is squalene in the prototype recombinant vaccines for HIV, malaria, herpes, influenza (including the swine strain), cytomegalovirus and human papillomavirus.” Some of these “are intended for mass immunization(s) around the globe” and that possibility should terrify everyone enough to refuse any mandate or doctor’s prescription to take them.

Another problem is that “Autoimmunity (takes) years to diagnose” because early symptoms (headaches, joint pain, etc.) are so vague they can easily be from other causes.

From inception, vaccines have always been dangerous enough for some experts to call them biological weapons undermining health, manipulating and crippling the immune system, and creating the possibility of future debilitating diseases. So Big Pharma’s solution is new, more potent genetically engineered vaccines and drugs that may end up harming or killing many who take them, especially people with weakened immune systems.

Matsumoto and others sounded the alarm to alert everyone to avoid these poisons masquerading as protective drugs. In fact, they benefit only the bottom lines of companies that manufacture them and scientists reaping generous royalties.

Swine flu cases in Australia could force WHO to declare pandemic

Bonnie Malkin
Telegraph
June 10, 2009

The WHO has so far left its six-level pandemic alert scale unchanged at phase five, signalling that a pandemic is “imminent.” But a swift increase in cases in the southeastern Australian state of Victoria could prompt the organisation to declare its first pandemic in four decades.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

The country has recorded 1,211 infections, with 1,011 in Victoria, the fourth highest number of infections in the world. Less than a month ago Australia had only a handful of cases of the H1N1 virus but its spread has been rapid.

“We are getting very, very close,” said Keiji Fukuda, WHO assistant director-general, noting that in Australia, there was now “a great deal of activity in Victoria at the community level.”

Under the WHO’s guidelines, one key criteria for declaring a pandemic would be established community spread in a country outside the first region in which the disease was initially reported, in this case, outside the Americas.

The UN health agency’s guidelines had initially focused on the geographical criteria to justify a phase change. However, member states have called on the agency to take other elements, such as severity of the disease into account.

June 10, 2009

Two passengers with names linked to Islamic terrorism were on the Air France flight which crashed with the loss of 228 lives, it has emerged.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

French secret servicemen established the connection while working through the list of those who boarded the doomed Airbus in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on May 31.

Flight AF 447 crashed in the mid-Atlantic en route to Paris during a violent storm.

While it is certain there were computer malfunctions, terrorism has not been ruled out.

Soon after news of the fatal crash broke, agents working for the DGSE (Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure), the French equivalent of MI6, were dispatched to Brazil.

It was there that they established that two names on the passenger list are also on highly-classified documents listing the names of radical Muslims considered a threat to the French Republic.

A source working for the French security services told Paris weekly L’Express that the link was “highly significant”.

Since the airship glory days of the early part of the century, blimps have certainly lost some of their cachet, relegated to hovering over sporting events and not much else. However, the Army is about to test launch an unmanned hybrid airship to be used for surveillance missions in Afghanistan.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

The Long Endurance Multi-INT Vehicle, or LEMV, is an impressive combination of endurance, carrying capacity, and speed (relatively speaking). The aircraft can be launched easily for missions with up to 3-weeks of continuous airtime carrying a 2,500 lb payload at altitudes of 20,000 ft. Larger payloads will lower the aircraft’s ceiling slightly.

Its lift and propulsion systems are equipped to maintain an average speed of 20 kts, but can “dash” at speeds of up to 80 kts when needed. Over the course of its flight the LEMV can cover up to 2,500 miles, over which quite a bit of surveillance information can be collected. It is also equipped with a “rapid deflation device” that will ground the ship quickly if control is somehow lost, keeping it from drifting into restricted airspace and preventing the payload from falling into the wrong hands.

Brit Cops Accused of Waterboarding Suspected Drug Smugglers

June 10, 2009

Six Metropolitan police officers have been suspended from duty following ­allegations they used a form of water-based torture on suspected drugs ­smugglers, it emerged last night.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) said it was investigating the conduct of officers based in Enfield, north London, during drugs raids in the borough last November.

Neither the IPCC nor Scotland Yard would comment on the nature of the ­allegations but sources said the officers were accused of pushing suspects’ heads into buckets of water.

One IPCC document is said to use the word “waterboarding” – the CIA technique condemned as torture by Barack Obama – in connection with the allegations.

The torture claims are part of an ­investigation which also includes accusations that evidence was fabricated and suspects’ property was stolen. It has already led to the abandonment of a drug trial, it was reported last night.

The Lethality of Non-Lethal Weapons: Man Dies From Bean Bag Rounds

June 10, 2009

An Urbandale man involved in a standoff with Polk County deputies Monday died Tuesday morning. After negotiation attempts failed, deputies shot 21-year-old Justin Schleuning with a bean bag gun. The rounds were meant to stun him, but wound up killing him

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

About 1:16 AM Monday, dispatchers received a call from Schleuning. He told deputies he had a loaded gun and wanted to kill himself. Authorities traced his call to the 300 block of NW 74th Avenue just south of Ankeny. “A little after four that same morning, he did exit his vehicle. Less than lethal munitions were deployed and he was taken to the hospital,” says Jana Rooker from the Polk County Sheriff’s Office.

“I don’t like the term less lethal,” says Gil Hansen, a firearms training and defensive tactics instructor at the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy. He says so-called bean bag guns can safely diffuse a situation. “They can subdue a person without deadly force and because they aren’t intended to cause death or bodily injury,” he says. But the danger is still there. Filled with birdshot and fired from a 12 gauge shotgun, the weapon still packs a punch.

Bill To Audit Federal Reserve Now Has 207 Co-Sponsors

Steve Watson
Infowars.net
Wednesday, June 10, 2009

At time of writing, a bill that would see the Federal Reserve bank audited for the first time in 59 years has 207 cosponsers in the House and is gaining traction with every single day.

This means just 11 more are needed for a majority to be reached in the House.

If enacted, HR 1207 will amend title 31 of the United States Code and reform the manner in which the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is audited by the Comptroller General of the United States.

In other words, for the first time since 1950, the the independent financial powerhouse that creates and regulates all money in the US will be forced by law to open its books.

HR 1207 was sponsored and introduced by Rep. Ron Paul. On February 26, 2009, it was referred to the House Committee on Financial Services, where it remains under consideration.

HR 1207 also has a companion bill, S 604: F R Sunshine Act of 2009, in the Senate.

This news also dovetails with reports detailing how the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, the panel responsible for investigating the use of bailout money, has issued a subpoena to the Federal Reserve, asking them to hand over all documents relating to the takeover of Merrill Lynch by the Bank of America.

Claims by New York Attorney-General Andrew Cuomo that former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke strong-armed BofA into buying Merrill, could see the two exposed to prosecution.

There is no doubt that the privately owned Federal Reserve is in hot water, and it knows it.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

As we reported last week, the Fed is hiring a veteran lobbyist to “manage its relations with Congress”. According to a Reuters report, the Fed plans to hire Linda Robertson, who previously worked for now-defunct energy company Enron, as well as the Clinton administration.

It is also no coincidence that the End the Fed movement has recently been targeted by smear campaigns. The MIAC report cited Ron Paul supporters as potential extremists and the United States Army Reserve Command issued “mitigation measures” in response to End the Fed demonstrations around the country last year.

Ron Paul recently explained to Forbes why the passage of HR 1207 is so important:

The Federal Reserve’s recent and unprecedented actions in the realm of monetary policy have provoked a backlash among the American people. Trillions of dollars worth of loans and guarantees have been provided to Wall Street firms, while Main Street Americans suffocate under harsh taxation, the prospect of higher debt levels and increasing inflation. These events have awakened many Americans to problems with the Fed’s loose monetary policy, the bubbles it has created in the past and the potential hyperinflation it might cause in the future.

One of the fallacies of modern economics is the idea that a central bank is required in order to keep inflation low and promote economic growth. In reality, it is the central bank’s monetary policy that causes inflation and depresses economic growth. Inflation is an increase in the supply of money, which in our day and age is directly caused or initiated by central banks. All other things being equal, inflation results in a rise in prices. A so-called “mild” rate of inflation of 3% per year leads to a 56% rise in prices over a 15-year period. Even a “low” rate of inflation of 2% per year leads to a 35% rise over that same period. How is that conducive to long-term growth?

A common misconception is that the Fed is completely independent of political pressures. While the Fed has far too much authority to make agreements with foreign governments and central banks, or create temporary liquidity facilities, the governors and–more important–the chairman, are appointed by the president.

If passed, HR1207 will ensure that the Fed make public the destination of the trillions in taxpayer “loans” that have been simply handed over to private banks without oversight.

Bernanke will be seated before Congress and forced to answer these questions instead of worming his way out of them, citing “extraordinary circumstances” and the like, as we have seen him do over and over for the past eight months.

The bill, if it becomes law, will expose how the Fed has consistently engaged the inflation of the currency for the gain of a few elite international bankers, further exposing how this kind of criminal action has directly led to financial crises and recessions for decades.

An audit would set the stage for the end of the Federal Reserve and a return of honest money and fiscal policies.

Indeed, Jim Grant, editor of Grant’s Interest Rate Observer, today told CNBC that the Fed’s balance sheet is “so out of whack” that the central bank would be shut down if subjected to a audit.

“In essence, the bill requires an audit of the Fed’s activity which shall be made available to Congress,” wrote Glenn Greenwald recently. “What possible arguments exist against this bill? Who opposes an audit of the Fed’s activities and why?”

Tune in to The Alex Jones Show today (June 10th 2009) to hear Congressman Ron Paul give an update on the progress of HR 1207.

The Daily Paul blog site has compiled a list of Democrats and a list of Republicans who have not signed on to co sponsor HR 1207. If your representatives are in either of these lists, we urge you to contact them and pressure them to cosponser the bill.

A full list of the 207 cosponsers follows. The ever growing list can also be tracked online at the Library of Congress here.

Get Ready for Inflation and Higher Interest Rates

ARTHUR B. LAFFER
The Wall Street Journal
June 10, 2009

Rahm Emanuel was only giving voice to widespread political wisdom when he said that a crisis should never be “wasted.” Crises enable vastly accelerated political agendas and initiatives scarcely conceivable under calmer circumstances. So it goes now.

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t
• 

Here we stand more than a year into a grave economic crisis with a projected budget deficit of 13% of GDP. That’s more than twice the size of the next largest deficit since World War II. And this projected deficit is the culmination of a year when the federal government, at taxpayers’ expense, acquired enormous stakes in the banking, auto, mortgage, health-care and insurance industries.

With the crisis, the ill-conceived government reactions, and the ensuing economic downturn, the unfunded liabilities of federal programs — such as Social Security, civil-service and military pensions, the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation, Medicare and Medicaid — are over the $100 trillion mark. With U.S. GDP and federal tax receipts at about $14 trillion and $2.4 trillion respectively, such a debt all but guarantees higher interest rates, massive tax increases, and partial default on government promises.
